[A/N: Flashbacks it is!! 😁]

(Y/n)'s P.O.V

I wanna die...

I stood above the balcony of this building, nearing the edge.

A depressing sigh escapes through my lips

Somehow ending up here...

I don't know anymore..

A sound of the opening elevator doors has brought out certain footsteps.

My eyes were currently closed, betting on the person.

If it isn't that guy, I'd jump right away.

So please let it be you....

*Tap*

*Tap*

*Tap*

*Tap*

The footsteps paused.

He's here..

"What are you doing?" A calm voice says from behind.

Kurapika.....

Mhmp.. I thought he'd instantly panic. I envy his personality.

"Suicide."

"Why do it in front of my place?" He deadpanned.

"So you'll save me." I flatly answered, opening my eyes as I dully stare below. This is 4th floor... Was it high enough? I don't want a painful death though.

"The wind's messing your hair and you're wearing a skirt.. Get down from there." A heavy sigh rolls out from him. Maybe he's even face-palming right now.

"No. I don't want to."

This man... I can't forget the warmth he showed the first time we met under the rain that day. Rainy days are cozy for me now...

"Oh my!! Look at the girl..! Is she gonna— No way right?!" Random high schoolers crowds below. They're like ants.

"Should we call police?!" An adult suggests.

"Honey! Please don't do it!!" A pregnant woman shouts.

All this attention.... I wish everybody are this kind even when I don't attempt suicide. But I guess humans only show concern for situations like this.

"You brat! Stop being so dramatic. If you wanna visit my place then get in. You're making a scene to my neighbours." He quickly brushes me off my feet, carrying me like a princess.

Look at his strained expression. "Cute.." I whispered to myself.

My legs comfortably rests on his steady arm instead of that cold iron I was just standing on.

"Sorry! She just wanted to enjoy the breeze!" He awkwardly laughs, apologising for a fake excuse. "Geez.. kids these days." He shrugs, fixing my mess.

"Eh? Is that your sister Kurapika?!" Girls in his batch asks below, smiling.
